Thinking about getting rid of the cheap sunglasses and doing my self a favor and invest in some real shades. Before I go looking I figured I might as well get some info from you guys first. What are you wearing?? How much $?

REVO flex frame--$300 (top line)---These are the $hit!---Didn't think the frames would make that MUCH difference! (the other two pair are collecting dust, as are the Jim's)--they do!---These are IT!, for me!
Been through a few brands! But, Revo and Maui Jim's are--is my book, Hard to beat! :)

Serengeti Velocity (Matte Black - Drivers Gradient) @ around $100 online and Ray-Ban Undercurrent series. They normally cost about $120 online but I bought pair yesterday at Costco for $80.
I had an old pair of Serengeti (about 8 years old) that I sent in to have the temples replaced (They have a set price of $25.00 for repairs) and they just sent me a new pair at no extra cost. Hard to beat that.

I've have about 8 pairs of Spys, I mix them up but favor the Coopers and a pair of Polarized Nolens. Coopers are real nice cuz they fit nicely with ball caps.

I hear ya. I have 5 or 6 pairs of lenses for my half jackets. I bought a pair of the new Flak Jackets but they were too similar to the half jackets. Althought the water resistant coating on teh Flax Jackets was nice, water hit them and blew off...kind of like Rain-X. Might try something different like Canteens, but I'm concerned about peripheral vision being blocked

I wear Maui Jims. I like the polarized when I am hanging out on the lake but not when I am driving. I think it is easier to see chop/wakes without the polarization. If I am driving straight into the sun I will wear polarized though.

If you are looking for a free pair I left some black Oakley Eye Jackets on the bottom af Lake Arrowhead in Wichita Falls, Texas, Lake Lawtonka in Lawton, Oklahoma, and Lake Travis (Devil's cove) in Austin. If you have a pal in the military, Oakley supplies their specs to military clothing sales stores on base/post for cheaper-than-the-general-public prices plus no tax...
